Hey,
I've released mkvtoolnix v3.3.0. This release contains contains several
important bug fixes and a few new features. Behind the scenes huge parts
of the code have seen adjustments, especially the order and amount of
included header files. I've gone to great lengths to ensure everything
compiles as usual on several platforms and versions but be prepared for
compiler errors if you compile the package yourself.
There are no changes that package maintainers have to look out for.
Here are the usual links...

extracting Vorbis tracks into Ogg files. Fix for bug 473.
2010-02-24 Moritz Bunkus <moritz at bunkus.org>

"C" locale is used instead. Fix for bug 472.
2010-02-23 Moritz Bunkus <moritz at bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge, mkvextract: enhancement: Improved the error resilience
when dealing with damaged Matroska files. When a damaged part is
encountered reading will continue at the next cluster.

gstreamer's muxer). For such tracks the CodecPrivate element (the
AVCC) is re-created from the bitstream. Fix for bug 470.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: MP4 files that do contain edit lists but
whose edit lists do not span the entire file are processed
properly. Such files are created by current x264 builds. Fix for
bug 469.

* Build system: Fixed configure for systems on which 'echo' does
not support the '-n' parameter (e.g. Mac OS).

Have fun.
